About Me

I was born and raised in Athens. I lived in Ithaca, Lefkada, Volos, Xanthi, Samothraki, Barcelona, Thessaloniki and now i' m in the high contrast city of Athens, back to the ever evolving city, since the Olympic Games!...(of 2004!!!)... .
At 4, I was introduced to Art when I was given a book of Paul Klee and a book of Giorgos Bouzianis.
I am interested in nature, water, chaos, the fractalistic structure of the universe and the interconnection of all things and beings, under the philosophy and practices of Deep Ecology.
